Pros

Glassdoor is full of great people who you can learn from. The culture is great with plenty of social events. There are plenty of benefits, from unlimited annual leave, private health insurance, a good pension scheme and pizza on Friday's.. We also have free snacks (crisps, popcorn, cans of coke, vit hits, fulfill bars, pistachios etc). We also have a fridge of beers, wine etc. The EMEA region is expanding so there are lots of opportunities to learn, grow and apply for new roles. The location is right beside Stephens Green in Dublin 2 so very central and easy to get to. Overall it is a great place to work, the team are all very supportive and are able to have a laugh!

Cons

-Promotion timeline has been unclear and vague, so expectations were not set properly for new starters which leads to disappointment and frustration. -Quota is quite high and can be stressful. You don't get quota relief when you take time off, so it is hard to hit your monthly quota/targets. The workload can be a lot and pressuring. - If you don't hit quota, your commission isn't great -Work/Life balance can be hard to maintain at times due to high quota

EMEA on the Rise

Pros

It's a very exciting time for Glassdoor Dublin, our EMEA HQ. There have been a number positive changes over the last 6 months, including a new local leadership team, new offices on Stephen's Green, and a great new attitude in the Dublin Office. Everyone feels excited about the journey we are on to Help People Find a Job in a Company they Love. Leadership is very open about the expansion plans and there is a strong sense of belief and togetherness. We understand that finding local solutions to local problems is the key to our success.

Cons

As the EMEA arm of the business, we are still reliant on our US cousins to implement requests which can add to delays in execution, which can be frustrating. Within the Sales Org, it still feels like we spend too much time dealing with Operational Issues which can restrain our growth.

Pros

- The company is growing exceptionally fast and traction in the UK is fantastic with clients always interested in hearing the story. - As there is a small team in the UK, the culture is great and work ethic is hard with a real 'family / friend' environment. - Get to work autonomously on your book of business and utilise your own strengths to engage clients. No micro-management that you typically find in other american companies in the UK. - Earning potential is fantastic with a massive opportunity for the right person to make as much money as they want (as long as they want to work hard). In saying that, you need to want to put in the hours if you want to make it work!

Cons

Being a smaller startup, employees need to know the following: - They will need to do things outside of their normal function (getting office supplies, fixing their own IT issues, data management / generation / cleaning) - Hard work is required and long hours need to be put in to make it work in a new market - The culture is developing, so it is not for everyone - You work a lot to the US standards and guidelines, so if people are not happy with this then it can be frustrating
